People say that everybody can draw and seen from their perspective that might be true – everybody can draw or make a drawing.
Nevertheless, there are people who take drawing to a whole new level. Whose perspective on the world is so radically different that their drawings are something from the other world. It’s like Outsider Art or Art Brut, but then made by someone who is holding the crayons in his left hand while making the pictures right out of his eye-socket.
He calls himself Godpipo on the web and this strange name suits them like a well-fitted shoe. His name, his writing, his personality (I think) are as unique as his drawings. Surreal images that might haunt you during the daytime, appear in your nightmares, but never scare you. Or as he describes himself and his art: “It’s, like myself, born out of shards of glass and the remainders of dust. These are the pictures I see when I look at the world through a darkened window.”
I present you the strange art of Godpipo (aka Arjan Winkelaar) in 23 pictures.
